Romans 12: 1-2
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
It is hard to get rid of bad habits. I was a very bitter person, have hate in my heart. I used to get upset easily everything bothers me but when I allow God to do his work in my life and replace all my bitterness and hate with love everything changes. I allow God to transform the broken girl i was.
You see when we let go of the things that cause us pain and stop put a limit on God all our pains He God will take away.
In order for us to be transform we have to focus on what God says we are. In 1 Peter 2:9 tells us that you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvellous light;
God says we are above and not beneath, we are the head and not the tail
We got to change our thoughts to be transform as Romans 12:2 says And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
I remember when i was sexual abused; I was scared miserable and afraid of men even when I became an adult. But I said to myself one day, I do not want to live like this the rest of my life in pain of my past. I have learnt to live one day at a time as the song writer puts it.
God has a transformation ready for you; He has a new calling for you. If you are shy He has a new boldness for you to step into. You are not created to beat and pull against the stones and rocks of life; you are called to move them.
So let God transform you into what He want you to be,
